VentureBeat has word that all or part of the PC edition of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is in the hands of pirates after being stolen from a warehouse. The explanation of what was taken is a little vague: "Evidently, pirated discs began to spread quickly after an employee at a shipping warehouse (run by a huge shipping company) in Fresno, Calif., stole one disc. Itís not clear how many full copies spread this way, as the disc that was stolen was apparently Disc 2 of a two-disk set for the PC. Security may have been too tight for the thief to steal the other disc."

You people need to stop your pipe dreams. Just because a couple dozen people on the Internet are posting to never buy a Ubi game again does not drive Ubi to the edge of bankruptcy. Ubi will survive even if their PC sales hit zero or if they stop making PC games altogether. They don't give two shits about us. Get a perspective or something. Jeez.

If they don't care about the PC market, why did they invest any resources at all into creating UbiDRM? And why do they continue to fund PC games, both ports and exclusives? Surprisingly, Ubisoft still publishes more PC-exclusives than any of the other big publishers. Obviously they do care about the PC market, otherwise they wouldn't bother doing any of this. If you want a good example of a publisher that doesn't care about PC gaming, look at Konami. Or Microsoft. Or Nintendo. Or Namco.
